I took a really long time to finish this. I started it in July and put it away for a while. Picked it up again in October and put it away again. I just didn’t enjoy knitting it, but didn’t want to rip it as this yarn had been knitted and ripped about three times. The yarn is considered sock yarn. I tried three different patterns and felt the yarn was too thin and weak for socks. So I persevered and I’m glad I did. This January I looked at it with different eyes. The knitting process flowed effortlessly and this is the end result! Fabulous!

About Me

Hi! My name is Karen. I have known and loved knitting since I was a young girl. I started when I went to Brownies!. I have knit on and off throughout the years but only since August of 2009 knitting became a constant in my life....A day without knitting is like a day without food! I'm a firm believer in exercise and healthy eating. My motto is to exercise before knitting!
